Guest Reviews
- Mattia (10/5): Exceptional - I loved my stay here. Would definitely recommend
- Lian (5/5): A decent stay with lovely views, but best suited for those who aren’t sensitive to noise or insects. - The room was spacious and the bed was comfortable. The view from the property was beautiful, and the overall setting was peaceful. The owner’s son was friendly and spoke English well, which helped us feel more at ease. The room felt a bit stuffy, and we were disturbed by loud noises in the mornings and evenings, possibly from a washing machine. The owners’ children were also quite noisy at night. We found many bees in our room and later discovered a beehive below our room, which could be dangerous for those with allergies. Communication was difficult when the son wasn’t around.
- Ha (10/5): Exceptional - the mountain view is incredible! The room has clean and neat facilities
- Kristijan (10/5): Exceptional -

- Ngọc (9/5): Superb -
- Honestabe (10/5): Great shower 🚿 - The location and shower 🚿 Needs elevator 🛗
- Jeremy (10/5): Exceptional -
- Victor (10/5): Best accommodation I had during my trip so far! - Had an amazing time here, the family is incredibly nice and helpful and funny :) the location is also great, it’s a nice area to explore also by foot, for everything else’s they offer a motorbike rental :) Nothing to complain about
- Holly (7/5): Nice place out of the town - The view was incredible and it was close to some of the activities. Note it is not that close to the town centre but we didn’t mind that. No option for breakfast which was tricky because of lack of restaurants nearby. Room was pretty cold when we stayed (late January) and didn’t really warm up.
- Tyson (10/5): Amazing views, friendly hosts - The hosts were really nice and friendly, rooms were big with amazing views and very good price.
Hosts also offer scooter rentals and are happy to help however they can
- Phung (9/5): Superb - The hosts are friendly and nice. They offered us to choose the room we liked and suggested us sightseeing places. The view from the room is stunning.
- Cynthia (9/5): Great stay. Highly recommended. - It is family owned thus they treat you as a family member. The room was spacious and with a great view of the mountains. Upon departure we were given huge pear fruits 🥰
- Jo (10/5): Five stars for this family run hotel - This small, family-run hotel is five stars for big rooms, cleanliness, amazing view and most of all the lovely family who run it. They made us feel welcome and helped us as much as we needed. Wonderful!
- Anis (8/5): Cozy little stay near the main attractions - Hotel not far from all the main attractions in town
They provide motorbike and bicycle rental
Lovely family always ready to help you
Gorgeous view from your bedroom Room could be a little cleaner
- Giulia (10/5): Very warm place - The family who runs the structure is very kind and thoughtful, happy to help with everything.
The room has a great view.
Wifi is very good. Me and my husband are very happy about our choice.
- Avik (9/5): Superb -
- Sophie (10/5): Lovely hometay with an amazing view - The view from the window is amazing! The room was spacious and comfy and the home stay is very nice. The family are also very welcoming. Exceptional value for money.
- Sabrina (8/5): Super nice family with mountain view - The selfmade grapewine of the host. Also the family was very polite and helpful. We were very welcomed. We had a balcony with nice mountain view. The son Speaks very good english and gave us many Information to Visit the area around Ninh Binh. So we Visited Bird valley that was not so touristic. The washbasin had a licking sink so the sewage ran over the bathroom floor. The homestay was closed early at the evening, you had to Ring the bell.
- Anita (9/5): Superb -
- Natalie (9/5): Homely and beautiful, we had the best time! - We love Sierra Homestay so much we returned to stay here again 4 years later! The rooms are beautiful with an incredible view of the mountains through the huge windows, and in a fantastic location for exploring Ninh Binh. The family are so lovely and couldn't be more helpful, using Google translate to chat across the language barrier, and even teaching my partner and I to ride mopeds that they rented to us for a great price. Our friends also borrowed bicycles. They made us feel so welcome and we loved exploring based on their recommendations! We would love to come back again in the future. Nothing! It seems footfall has been much quieter for homestays around Ninh Binh since Covid-19, so the only thing that would make us happier is seeing more people visit Sierra! <3
- Sara (9/5): Really enjoyed our time time here, hosts very welcoming, fantastic location. There is no onsite restaurant but heaps wit - Location, the room with a fabulous view, the wonderful family. Nothing
- Nguyen (10/5): Exceptional -
- Paul (10/5): Exceptional - The host and his family live at the hotel. They were all very kind and helpful. Nothing I needed help with was any trouble. Tan sorted all my sightseeing and travel needs trouble free. I had need for an optician to repair my glasses and Tan took me free of charge. Excellent host. Smart TV too...bonus Nothing to write here
- Ming (10/5): Exceptional -
- Emma (10/5): Best place to stay! - The family who owns this hotel is so sweet. Tan showed us all of the nearby attractions that we should go to, and even taught us how to ride the moped.
The room was also great- it was the perfect size, very clean, and comfortable. We loved the location- close to beautiful nature and a few restaurants. It was the perfect place to base ourselves while exploring Trang An.
- Michał (10/5): Great place to stay in Trang An - We were welcomed by our host and got local map with roads not visible on Google Maps for easier exploration of surrounding areas. Room with large window and beautiful view on the mountain. Helpful stuff, motorbike with full tank which is great no brainer for tourists, etc. We were dropped by our host to make it for our evening bus to next location. Shower drain is slightly clogged. Also, three must be some hole near window as bees were able to make it in at pace 1 new bee per day.
- Rune (10/5): Hyggelig sted - Koselig sted, veldig hjelpsom familie som bodde der. Utsikten var helt topp. Veldig kort vei til Trang An og Mua caves.
- Kathleen (10/5): Exceptional -
- Bong (8/5): Very good - The breakfast ban cuon which we ordered was very good. Our host was very friendly and helpful. The location was near to the places we visited on our motorbikes. Nothing really. Everything was good.

- Nicke (10/5): It's not checking in, it's coming home - We absolutely loved our stay at Sierra Homestay!

- Kate (10/5): Beautiful view from the window - Wonderful experience. The owner is truly a great host. Helped with renting motorbikes, was always there to answer questions
The view from the window is stunning
Highly recommendation ! Nothing
- Elly (10/5): Overall nice place to stay - Very comfortable and worth of money. I had a nice and comfy one night stay there with my family. It feels home. nice view, comfort bedroom
- Cristian (10/5): Come here and you won't regret - It's such a great place seeing very few tourists nowadays. We came in off season and were the only customers.
The location is good because it provides easy access to the usual attractions without being in a noisy area.
We arrived at 5am and were allowed an early check-in which was many hours before the official one. Same thing also happened at checkout.
The family tries hard to make sure you are getting the most of your time and will help with anything they can. The owners children speak English and if they aren't there is always the option of making a phone call.
- Balazs (10/5): Exceptional - It was a really nice place to stay. We felt really homely. And the stuff was incredibly helpful. Thank you very much for everything!!! :)
- Timothy (8/5): Very good - Lovely family and great location. Free bikes were a great bonus! Beds were a little hard and wasps were making their way into the room from outside.
- Anonymous (10/5): A must stay in Ninh Binh! - The staff were absolutely amazing and went above and beyond with letting us check in and check out way later than the expected times. They also gave us free fruit every day and made us banh mi free of charge. Lots of things to do close by and the owner was very helpful with all the information. I hate to say it because we loved them so much, but their son cried a lot and we could hear it all the way from the 4th floor. It was very echoey.
- Kirsten (10/5): The most beautiful home stay experience in Vietnam! - We were welcomed and treated like family! So grateful for our time here. The room was perfect, great view. We were able to borrow bikes and explore the area. So close to the sights. But our favourite part was sharing fruit with the family and using a translator app to share stories. 🥰
- Hong (10/5): very nice - The owner is very friendly and helpful ,the room is comfortable with beautiful view. We had a nice time there,if we come back to Ninh Binh we will stay at Seirra again. One more plus point is that the gift of special Ninh Binh from the owner when we check out.
- Alina (10/5): Great stay - Nice rooms and really great host, he made good recommendations and the whole family was just super nice. Definitely would come here again.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Un hotel fabuloso de ambiente familiar y personal rodeado de una naturaleza y un pueblo encantadores.
- Emilie (10/5): Amazing views and amazing people! - Our stay at Sierra Homestay was perfect! Tân and his family are the nicest and most helpful people, and Tân really meant a lot for our experience in Ninh Binh. He recommended us the best places and routes, taught my sister to drive a motorbike and even played a little music for us during dinner in the evening. The rooms are new and clean and have amazing views. Cannot recommend enough!
- alan (8/5): Quite friendly homestay. - Very friendly and welcoming family and staff. Clean comfortable rooms with great views. It was cold when we were there so having the aircon switched to heating was a boon. The food was good and filling which was appreciated, as the nearest restaurants and shops are 10 minutes walk away. Breakfasts are freshly prepared but as this is a small hotel it is not buffet style, it is nonetheless filling and tasty. Bikes and motorcycles are available for hire at the hotel.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Thank you Than and Minh and your parents for your hospitality and advice. We look forward to staying with you again. Sierra Homestay is close to beautiful sights, the Tràng An boat trip and you will be offered a motorbike to travel around. The rooms are pretty and comfortable and the breakfast and other meals are lovely. We had a lot of assistance getting around to see things - thank you!
